After the interview with Variety Show, Lu Yanhe had a ten-minute break.
At this time, he was able to take some time, and then drank the soup Wan Qingqing made for him.
There was almost no time to eat today. He could only eat something and drink some soup to replenish energy as he did now.
Chen Ziyan sat next to him and said: "A good news."
"Huh?"
"After your live interview on CBN Morning News, the real-time search for "Friends" on the Maxine site has reached the first place. A total of 320,000 people have searched for this show in the past two hours."
“I don’t know how many viewers it can convert.”
“The audience for CBN’s morning news is in the millions. , coupled with Kaiser Murray’s interview with you, several clips of your responses have spread relatively well on the Internet and attracted some attention. If it can eventually bring more than one million effective views to "Friends" The number of people is a huge success, and it’s no wonder that Maxine helped you get on this show.”
Lu Yanhe smiled.
“Why don’t they arrange for other leading actors to be cast? I’m too pressed for time.”
"Don't you think they are not pressed for time? In China, as long as you are famous, you can be busy without having to travel overseas." Chen Ziyan smiled, "However, the main reason is because you were overseas before. The performance has always been very good. A column that attracts a lot of attention, like CBN Morning News, is not available just for everyone. Yes, even if Maxine gets the opportunity to be on the show through her PR, Maxine can’t say that anyone can be on the show. Otherwise, Maxine certainly hopes that there will be more publicity opportunities for "Friends". "
Lu Yanhe asked: "Yan Liang. Not now? "The Gold Rush" was brought to him too. A lot of attention.”
“At the public level, it’s still far behind,” Chen Ziyan said, “However, Zhou Ping’an made a good move for him in this regard, although Yan Liang didn’t get anything like CBN. For such a publicity opportunity, Zhou Ping'an still gave him the opportunity to use his own connections and connections in Asia to connect people. Many media outlets conducted interviews and reports on him based on the popularity of "The Gold Rush" and "Friends"."
"Zhou Ping'an... is he so generous? He is willing to let more people know Yan Liang. "Really?" Lu Yanhe was surprised when he heard Chen Ziyan say this, because it was not in line with Zhou Ping'an's style as he knew it.
Chen Ziyan: "Who knows what he is thinking, to be fair, you have to say that Zhou Ping'an doesn't have a dirty mind, he just does a lot of tricks."
Lu Yanhe: "He is really a magical person."
To this day, Lu Yanhe has to admit this.
As for his former manager, the longer he knew him, the more curious Lu Yanhe became about him.
This curiosity is nothing more than wanting to know what is going on in his mind.
Why do you often do that kind of embarrassing operation where you pick up sesame seeds and lose the watermelon?
Time and time again, never get tired of it.
Chen Ziyan: "By the way, Fuli wants to be on the show "The Birth of an Actor", you know, right?"
"Yes."
"She During the interview, she said directly that she was not very satisfied with her current development situation, so she wanted to find an opportunity to improve her career."
"Then are they planning to let her appear on the show? ”
"Still discussing, with some hesitation. The main reason is that she had a school bullying scandal in the past. Although the later scandal was suppressed, I don't know whether it is true or not. I am afraid that if it is true, it will explode again."
"This kind of risk is quite prone to thunderstorms." Lu Yanhe said.
Chen Ziyan: "But I have seen her as a little girl. She is very ambitious and driven. As long as she never admits defeat and maintains this state, it will be a matter of time for her to get ahead. She The conditions are really good. As long as you gain some fame in the future, you will be able to thrive in the fashion industry."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
After chatting for a while, Lu Yanhe ended his break and continued the interview with another media.
-
Sometimes, many people will question, in such a big media era with millions and tens of millions of traffic, why do we still do something that may only be seen by hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands of people? Interviews with print media, or road shows during movie promotions. After a show, there are only a few hundred viewers at most.
Actually, many people have forgotten one thing. If you want to be seen in a big media era with millions and tens of millions of traffic, you must first have a publicity point and materials.
Just like Lu Yanhe, except for "Variety Show", the other media he was interviewed by may not have more than 100,000 direct readers of the final interview script, but there are many contents and stories mentioned in it. , will be contacted by other media and promoters Chen Ziyan for secondary publicity and dissemination.
To put it bluntly, a serious interview like this is actually a rich material library in itself, which can be used by other propaganda parties as raw materials for secondary processing.
The same goes for movie roadshows.
Those who are interested can actually take a look at how many of the popular search terms on a movie and the widely spread news keywords came out during the movie road show.
These things cannot be created out of thin air.
You can’t just write a script and direct it yourself.
Never underestimate the power of collisions between people.
There are always surprises and surprises at road shows - surprises and surprises are news.
Interviews can also explore the heart of the interviewee and discover things that are unknown or have not been made public - this is the content of propaganda.
Lu Yanhe has deeply understood this truth from the success of "Jump Up". Therefore, regardless of the size of the media, whether the interviewer is a veteran or a newcomer in the industry, he respects and treats them seriously.
In this industry, you never know what impact the people and things you encounter will have on you.
Just like that day when he suddenly made a guest appearance and acted in "Three Mountains" for one night. As a result, it became the main reason why many film directors later used him, and it also became a door for his film career that led directly to Rome. door.
-
At noon, Lu Yanhe ate a piece of bread, drank the evergreen soup, and went to take a nap.
Fifteen minutes of nap time.
Afterwards, we took photos and headed to the premiere of "The Mist".
On the way there, in the crowd of three people, Li Zhibai suddenly sent a screenshot of an interview he had on CBN morning news that morning. Someone translated their conversation into Chinese subtitles.
Li Zhibai said: From now on, the title of Brother La will be given to you.
Lu Yanhe: I don’t dare to take it seriously. You are the drag brother, and I am just the drag brother.
Yan Liang: Big brother, little brother.
Lu Yanhe: What about you?
Li Zhibai: a veteran health cadre.
Yan Liang: Get out.
Lu Yanhe smiled and asked: Aren't you still sleeping?
Li Zhibai: I'm just sleeping. I'm memorizing my lines. I temporarily took over your job and came to sing "Friends" for you.
Lu Yanhe: Just a few lines, and you haven’t finished memorizing them yet?
Li Zhibai: No, what?
Lu Yanhe: Come on.
Yan Liang: He deserves it. I told him to carry it, but he refused to carry it. He said no.
Lu Yanhe: Then why aren’t you asleep yet?
Yan Liang: I was reading the script when Zhou Pingan sent me a script.
Lu Yanhe: He has been doing business more frequently recently. Why is he suddenly so interested in you? I heard from Sister Ziyan that he also received many interviews and reports from overseas media for you.
Yan Liang: You are thinking too much. He just wants to consolidate my influence and reputation overseas so that I can get endorsements. Many brands were not interested in me before. He feels that now is the time when I have the most star power. This time is not the time. If you try to win over endorsements, it will be even harder later.
Lu Yanhe: I thought he had reformed and started to take charge of your work seriously.
Yan Liang: He is not unserious, but his goal is not to make my career better.
Li Zhibai: After Mengli arrived at his place, there was no movement?
Yan Liang: No, it seems that she has been busy falling in love recently.
Li Zhibai:?
Yan Liang: Zhou Pingan said it.
Lu Yanhe: Mengli, fall in love? So it doesn't work? I don't believe it.
This is not the Mengli he had in mind.
It’s okay to fall in love with Mengli, but she will never give up her job for love.
Although this woman is crazy, she is very enterprising.
Yan Liang: Who knows.
Li Zhibai: Is your premiere of "The Mist" about to begin?
Lu Yanhe: We will be on the red carpet in an hour, and the screening will start at 2:30 p.m.
Li Zhibai: Let’s see if “The Fog” can make you an instant hit in the United States and reap a box office hit.
Lu Yanhe laughed: I don’t know, but D19’s market positioning for this film is mainly for Asian audiences and horror film audiences, and they are not very optimistic about the all-age market.
Li Zhibai: It is a horror film, and it is a film with the theme of ghost revenge. It cannot become the main theme for all ages in the United States. There are many religious beliefs in the United States, and horror films are not Family movie.
Lu Yanhe: Yes, so it is almost impossible for me to become an instant hit in the United States. This movie does not have this space. As long as it succeeds at the box office, that is enough. The box office is the greatest value this movie gives Lu Yanhe.
Just like Chen Ziyan’s goal, as long as this movie has a North American box office of US$70 million and a global box office of US$100 million, it will be successful.
His first overseas-produced film was considered a success.
As for his performance in the movie... Lu Yanhe is still very confident, and the reactions of the staff at the filming site have already given him very positive feedback.
Director Mu Ken is not a newcomer, so it is impossible for him to let the post-editing cut his performance into a mess.
-
The premiere has a red carpet area for media photos, but it is different from the big red carpet at the film festival. In fact, it is like the red carpet at the movie premiere, where the screening is A red carpet is laid out at the entrance of the hall and a background board is erected. It is not as grand as the red carpet at the film festival.
Lu Yanhe played in the back position.
The staff assigned to him by D19 have been following him and guiding him since he set off from the hotel.
He was the one leading the whole process, while Wan Qingqing and Chen Ziyan were by his side.
Arrived at the red carpet area, just as Lu Yanhe's car drove over, it was caught by a flash of spotlights in front of it.
The car was parked and as soon as the door opened, the screams outside came out like a flood that had been opened.
Lu Yanhe got out of the car, and for a moment he didn't see everything in front of him clearly.
He just waved his hand habitually and showed his smile.
Lily Williams, who was standing with others chatting at the door of the screening room, heard the screams and calls from the media and fans behind her. She looked back and saw Lu Yanhe in front of her. .
A very handsome man.
Lily Williams shook her head and turned back to smile at her friend.
"I didn't expect that Lu Yanhe has so many fans in the United States."
A friend said: "He has gained some loyal fans in the United States for many of his past film and television dramas, especially the series "Friends" , his role is very popular."
Lily Williams said: "I can almost imagine how much the film critics will like him when they see his performance in "The Mist". ”
“Have you seen the movie?”
“Not yet, but he has conquered everyone on the set.” Lily Williams said, “He and those Talented actors are different. He has the magic ability to combine method and experience in acting, completely catching your eyes. In this script, his character didn't have such a strong sense of presence at first. "
"Lily, your evaluation of him is too exaggerated."
"This is not my own evaluation, Arne and I both think so." Lily Williams said.
"What you're saying is that he can compete for an Oscar with this movie."
"If it's not a horror movie, maybe he can really do it." This is Lily Williams Si's answer.
Suddenly, the next second, a roaring voice came from behind them: "Yellow-skinned monkeys, go back to your own place, this is the United States!"
Even though there were screams and shouts at the scene, the sound still reached everyone's ears very loudly.
Including Lu Yanhe who was on the spot.
His expression was stunned for a moment.
-
At this moment, many thoughts passed through Lu Yanhe's mind.
All his thoughts revolved around one thing: what kind of reaction he should make was the most appropriate reaction at the moment.
Lu Yanhe also felt stunned at this moment.
How could he be so calm at a time like this?
Being humiliated and discriminated against in person, there is no anger or shock at all, just a little surprise.
Is it because you have thought that something like this might happen?
In the United States, this kind of thing is indeed not uncommon.
Some Asian celebrities have encountered similar scenes, including in public places.
In that second, at least ten reactions flashed through Lu Yanhe's mind. Finally, after a second of stunned expression, he raised his middle finger to the big man with a somewhat disdainful and angry expression. He replied unceremoniously: "Fuckyou!"
It's in English.
-
Lily Williams was also surprised.
She herself didn’t expect that at this time, she actually chose to walk back, walked to Lu Yanhe, gave him a huge hug, and then also raised her middle finger to the big man: "You You should go back to your home!”
There was a burst of applause and screams.
“Let’s go in and ignore him.” Lily Williams said to Lu Yanhe.
Lu Yanhe nodded and took two steps forward with Lily Williams. Suddenly he remembered something and turned back to make a few greeting gestures to the photographers at the scene, apologizing to them and saying that he could not continue to give. They filmed it.
Many photographers gave him a thumbs up gesture.
Someone shouted: "Lu, we support you! We love you!"
The bodyguards at the scene were always following Lu Yanhe, fearing that there would be some radicals at this time, and they would do something wrong Something scarier.
Arne also came out at this time and stood at the door, looking at Lu Yanhe and the others with concern.
"Hey, bro, how are you?" Arne asked.
"Fortunately, it's okay." Lu Yanhe shook his head and smiled at him, "Thank you."
Arne glanced at the crowd angrily, as if he wanted to see who it was. Such an asshole.
Lily Williams said: "That person has been driven away."
The unexpected situation on the red carpet became the talk of everyone before the movie was screened.
Of course, this also caused Lu Yanhe to be greeted with concern by everyone after he entered.
Lu Yanhe did not expect that the most common thing he said before the movie "The Mist" was screened was "It's okay, I'm fine."
-
In the lounge next to the screening room, the door of the lounge is open, and many people can see it. Irina Green, the publicity director of D19 Film Company, and the company’s CEO Si Curt Harris stands together.
They just finished talking with Director Muken.
The news from the other side of the red carpet caused people in the screening room who were originally preparing to watch the movie to whisper among themselves.
Seeing this scene in front of her, Irina Green showed a subtle smile to Scott Harris.
Scott Harris saw Lu Yanhe come in with Lily Williams and others, and was instantly surrounded by many people. He said to Irina Green: "Okay, we have to hurry up too I went to express my condolences.”
“Of course.” Elena Green took the phone and checked it. Following the real-time situation on Twitter, "Scott, don't forget what you promised me. The North American box office of "The Mist" will exceed 100 million, and you must support me as a partner."
"We have agreed long ago , isn’t it?” Scott Harris showed a “none of this is a problem” smile to Jelena Green.
-
As a columnist film critic for "Variety" magazine, Tom Wynn also came to the premiere of "The Mist" today.
After he met Lu Yanhe, he expressed his anger and regret to Lu Yanhe very seriously.
"I really hope you can have a happy mood in Los Angeles."
Lu Yanhe shook his head and said with a smile: "Unhappy things will never affect my inner happiness. Being able to see you here I'm very happy to see you."
Tom Wynn nodded and said: "I have long heard from people inside D19 that your performance in this movie is unparalleled. I rarely hear this. People in American film companies have such high praise for Asian actors.”
"Thank you. I hope you won't feel that this evaluation is too exaggerated in the end." Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "Tom, I really hope to hear your evaluation. I have always been able to get insights from your evaluation that will help my performance." Content."
Tom Wynn nodded, "I'm glad to hear you say that."
After some greetings, Lu Yanhe was finally urged to sit down and prepare to start the movie screening.
Lu Yanhe took a deep breath.
From the incident to the present, his state can be directly described by the four words war and chaos.
He didn't even have time to recall what just happened.
Until you sit down here.
Take a long breath.
He was lost for a moment.
Are the reactions just now OK? Is there anything I haven't noticed? What is everyone's reaction to him?
It was impossible for him to take out his mobile phone and read online comments in front of everyone.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of the so-called not caring, not caring, screw not caring and not caring. (End of this chapter)
